Optical illusions have become a fun way of testing your brain and determining how you perceive yourself and the world.
In this optical illusion, viewers are invited to pick which animal they see first to indicate whether you’re a curious or cautious person in life.
This image shows a black and white animal set on a white background, inviting viewers to note if they see a cat or a mouse first.
An optical illusion asks viewers to decide if they see a cat or a mouse first to reveal if they’re more cautious or curious
If you saw a cat first, this means you’re a curious person and are inherently self-centered. You believe you can complete projects better than your peers and choose to take care of yourself rather than others
The optical illusion asks viewers to note which animal within the entire image catches your attention first.
Seeing the black cat first signifies that you’re an inherently self-centered but are also independent and curious.
You don’t like depending on others to support you and believe you can complete any tasks better than others.
The cat also reveals that you’re a playful and mysterious person which makes others enjoy your naturally bubbly personality and causes them to gravitate to you.
The final trait is curiosity – you are constantly driven to try new experiences and learn new things throughout your life.
A white mouse can be seen in the center of the cat’s face, where it’s nose is located, with the cat’s eyes forming the ears.
If you saw the mouse first, this means you are a cautious and shy person who doesn’t trust people easily.
Your timid and reserved nature can leave you feeling like you’re on the outside looking in, making you more observant than others.
You notice the world around you with an unfettered view and are adaptable to situations that are out of the norm.
The mouse also reveals that you’re a tough and reliable person to have around in difficult situations and your observant nature means you know how to quickly deal with them.
Those who saw a mouse first are more cautious, subdued and often shy
These types of optical illusions use visual trickery to reveal people’s personality traits or desires by analyzing how they perceive ambiguous images.
The type of illusion, as shown here, is called a figure-ground illusion that forces our minds to switch from one image to another, meaning you may have noticed the cat first and the mouse only a second later.
When we look at the world, we observe information in small pieces so we don’t overwhelm the senses which forces us to focus on a main object while everything else becomes part of the background.
